Not in the Ball Four or The Game category of sports books but one of the recent best.
I have it. I also have the book he wrote about opponents of Ali, 'Facing Ali'.

I like how he took an interesting angle on Orr. It wasn't set in Boston, where Orr's obviously a hero, just a perspective on how no one really knows much about Orr, how he's manged his public image. He did it without making it a hatchet job.
